Fifteen renal patients have been financially assisted by LifeCycle (Malta) Foundation to go on a pilgrimage to Lourdes. They joined a group organised by Assocjazzjoni Volontarji Lourdes (AVL), consisting of over 160 other persons including other patients, relatives, doctors, nurses, carers, and helpers including 14 youths. This spiritual journey was led by Archbishop Emeritus Monsignor Pawlu Cremona.

Through its Foster Clark LifeCycle Challenge 2018 to be held between 28th September and 12th October 2018, LifeCycle Foundation is aiming to raise the substantial sum of €150,000 to sustain both its current and new projects for 2018-2019. In those 10 days, LifeCyclists will be cycling 2,000 km from Dubai to Salalah, in Southern Oman in blistering heat – all to raise much needed money for renal patients.

Apart from life-saving dialysis equipment and improved facilities, LifeCycle is sponsoring the Twilight Shift Van to transport patients to and from Mater Dei Hospital for their evening dialysis, as well as the software matching programme called “Traccia” which determines the best recipient for a kidney donation.

In addition, LifeCycle Foundation has donated €120,000 for kidney disease research at University of Malta through the University’s Research Trust (RIDT) since 2014, with the last two donations amounting to a total of €50,000 were donated by Foster Clark in 2017 and 2018 respectively.
